You can now follow the real-time sailing track of the Half Moon on the map below, courtesy of Marine Traffic (external link). Note that the ship's position is available only while we maintain an active internet connection. so don't be alarmed if you can't find us. Marine Traffic displays the ship's track (course of travel) for the previous 12 hours, updated every few minutes when we're active. If we're underway but our track isn't visible, left-click on the Half Moon's purple map icon to bring up a data window, then click on Show Vessel's Track in the window's lower left-hand corner.

To see more, visit our page on the Marine Traffic website. Elsewhere on their web site you can view other vessels and major ports worldwide. We are experimenting with a host of educational applications for this live tracking feature, and welcome feedback from your observations and thoughts about how to use it.
